Romney Softens Tone on Foreign Policy

Leaves off direct attacks on Obama in speeches

|

Mitt Romney didn't repeat his strong criticism of President Barack Obama over the response to protests at the U.S. embassies in Egypt and Libya at a campaign rally here Thursday.

He did note the death of four Americans, calling it "a tragedy to lose such a wonderful, wonderful ah, wonderful people," as he was interrupted by protesters on site in this all-important swing state.
